The Baltimore Ravens kicked off the 2026 season with a commanding 48-31 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1. With both teams eager to establish their dominance early in the season, the Ravens showcased their offensive prowess and depth, making a strong statement to the league. Derrick Henry was the star of the show for Baltimore, racking up an impressive 176 rushing yards, which kept the Colts' defense on its heels. Quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. of the Colts also delivered a solid performance, throwing for 225 yards and three touchdowns, but ultimately it wasn't enough to overcome the Ravens' explosive offense. Keenan Allen contributed significantly for Indianapolis as well, leading the team in receiving yards with 84. The Ravens' defense played a crucial role in the outcome, with Malaki Starks notching an interception that shifted momentum back to Baltimore at a pivotal moment in the game. Despite Laiatu Latu's two sacks for the Colts, the Ravens' ability to limit Indianapolis' scoring opportunities proved decisive. The game turned when Baltimore extended their lead in the second half, forcing the Colts to play catch-up, a task they ultimately could not complete.
